Holden is convinced the baby is a girl...he always calls he/she a her...we will see if he's right in July...

He loves to "listen" to the baby, i.e. putting his ear to my growing belly...
Sometimes he talks to "her"
H: "I love you baby..."
H: "Why doesn't she answer me?"
M: "Babies can't talk in the tummy..."
H: "When she comes out will she talk like me?"
M: "Not right away...babies don't talk till they are bigger...you didn't talk right away..."
H: "hmmm..."

H: "When she comes out I will give her this...if she wants it..."
Holding his "Find It" bag
M: "Oh that's very nice of you..."
H: "Then will she give it back when she is done with it?"
M: "Maybe..."
H: "hmmm..."

H: "When she comes out of your tummy, I will let her chew on Sophie..."
M: "Oh you will? That's so nice..."
I tried putting Sophie away a few months ago, it's a teething toy...but Holden requested her back so I figured we will need a new one for the baby...she is well loved:-)
H: "And then I will get a new Sophie..."
M: "well Sophie is your toy, so if you still need her than the baby will get a new one..."
H: "Okay I will keep her..."
hmm...maybe Holden should get a new non-chewable giraffe as a gift from the new baby:-)

H: "Where's daddy's ladder?"
M: "He put it away in the garage, he was done working on the ceiling."
H: "But there is no space for it out there!"
M: "Yeah Dan came and bought the jeep, so now there is a lot of room!"
H: "But now we only have TWO cars!"
M: "Don't you think that's enough?"
H: "No we NEED three!"
M: "hmmm"
